The invention relates to a desktop straw machine and a straw manufactured thereby, in particular to a desktop straw machine for manufacturing a recyclable environmentally-friendly paper straw, and a straw manufactured by the desktop straw machine.

The policy of restricting the use of plastic straws in Taiwan has caused a lot of discussion. However, the policy of restricting straws has become a worldwide trend. According to the research, about 8 million tons of plastics are poured into the ocean every year, which means that about 250 kilograms of plastic per second is poured into the ocean. Therefore, the EU, the United Kingdom, India and other countries have adopted plastic straws. .

The focus of environmental protection has been on plastic bags for many years. However, a film of rescuers who removed the straw from the nostrils of the Costa Rican turtles made people notice the harm of the straw to the creatures. However, the use of straw products is quite high, and most beverage products require the use of straws for smoking. The number of straws consumed daily in the world is staggering.

The straws currently used are mainly made of plastic straws. Because the plastic straws are small in size, they are not easy to handle even after recycling. Therefore, a large amount of straw waste is generated every day in the world, causing environmental pollution and being difficult to handle. problem. Secondly, the plastic pipette still has the problem of plasticizer residue or plasticizer precipitation when sucking hot drinks, which causes a kind of harm to human health. Therefore, the environmental pollution caused by the plastic pipette which cannot be decomposed needs to be further improved.

In order to solve the problem of plastic straws, stainless steel straws have been developed, although However, the stainless steel straw can be reused, but it needs to be carried around and cause trouble to the user.
